Like we are supposed to do? How come it is okay for Obama to say things like that?

Sanders has been pulled left on the gun issue. Gun violence in the US is killing on average about 80 people a day, this is not acceptable.

Does agree with reasonable gun control, so the president should have no problems campaigning for him.

Nothing that President Obama proposed is contrary to Sanders' positions.

His position today is much better than in the past. The only way to get him all the way on board is to discuss it in terms of economics only. I think if we educated him on the devastating economic loss to families, and the corporate gun industries economic protections aided by congress, we could really get him to the right position. Like anything else, he has to see it in terms of the all mighty dollar.
